Title: Seven Days |
|
By Edison |
|
Seven days, was all she wrote |
|
A kind of ultimatum note, she gave to me |
|
She gave to me |
|
When I thought the field had cleared |
|
It seems another suit appeared to challenge me |
|
Woe is me |
|
Though I hate to make a choice |
|
My options are decreasing mostly rapidly |
|
Well, we'll see |
|
I don't think she'd bluff this time |
|
I really have to make her mine |
|
It's plain to see, it's him or me |
|
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday |
|
If I make up my mind |
|
Wedn'sday would be fine |
|
Thursday's on my mind |
|
Friday'd give me time |
|
Saturday could wait |
|
But Sunday'd be too late |
|
The fact he's over six feet ten |
|
Might instil fear in other men |
|
But not in me |
|
The mighty flea |
|
Ask if I am mouse or man |
|
The mirror squeaked, away I ran |
|
He'll murder me in time for his tea |
|
Does it bother me at all? |
|
My rival is Neanderthal |
|
It makes me think |
|
Perhaps I need a drink |
|
I.Q. is no problem here |
|
We won't be playing Scrabble for |
|
Her hand, I fear |
|
I need that beer |
|
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday |
|
If I make up my mind |
|
Wedn'sday would be fine |
|
Thursday's on my mind |
|
Friday'd give me time |
|
Saturday could wait |
|
But Sunday'd be too late |
|
Seven days will quickly go |
|
The fact remains, I love her so |
|
Seven days |
|
So many ways |
|
But I can't run away |
|
I can't run away |
|
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday |
|
If I make up my mind |
|
Wedn'sday would be fine |
|
Thursday's on my mind |
|
Friday'd give me time |
|
Saturday could wait |
|
But Sunday'd be too late |
|
Do I have to tell a story |
|
Of a thousand rainy days |
|
Since we first met? |
|
It's a big enough umbrella |
|
But it's always me that ends up |
|
Getting wet. Yeah, Yeah. |
